Wanna play?

Heya fellas,

I'm expanding a bit on the post below (lo kaya bisa baca pikiran gw, Ping!)

Toys and games. What is it about dudes and their MANIC obsession with these two? 

Unlike the bad habit of ngompol that naturally stops at a certain age, toying and gaming seems to be a life long disease. Malahan penyakit yang satu ini makin lama malah makin kronis. Yang tadinya cuma addict main gameboy, lama2 mulai merambah ke playstation, ke online game, ke electronic gadgets, ke gitar, ke mobil, ke saham and even, you know it, chicks. 

Kalau udah bosen sama Jessica the guitar and Bianca the car, dudes start playing games with the real Jessicas and Biancas. Mulai dari game terkenal titled "how long should I wait to call after the first date" sampai game aneh2 including "I really really like you today, but I'm not so sure about tomorrow" and "how long can I disappear until I drive her crazy". And when boredom hits one more time, dudes start picking up a new game: juggling. Juggling more than 1 girl, that is. 

Just like dudes get obsessed with going up the level of difficulty in a playstation game, they also want to get up the level of difficulty in playing the juggling chicks game. From 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 to... the day they get caught. 

Caci maki. Gampar. Putus. Minta maaf. Ngaku kapok. Minta maaf lagi. Kasih kado. Minta balik. Diterima.

But dudes will gun for the OK button when asked "do you want to start a new game?" at the end of a game they lost. With no second thought, without further ado. And it starts all over again.

Dasar penyakit kronis. Susah deh sembuhnya.  

Cowok as Accessory

Heya fellas,

Pleasure to meet you all! I'm excited about contributing to this blog. I tend to have no leniency towards the testosterone-driven population, so get ready to be judged, dudes!

Kidding!

So, first theory:

Cowok as Accessory.

Actually, cowok bisa jadi THE accessory.

Pernah ga lo pergi ke suatu tempat dengan penampilan cukup pas2an (say... after 8 hours back to back classes on less than 4 hours sleep), tapi banyak banget yg ngeliatin lo dengan pandangan takjub atau setengah sirik karena lo lagi jalan with a good looking/well-dressed/put-together/non-creepy looking guy?

Cewek (yang di blog sebelah dibilang sakaw perhatian) suka tuh dapet perhatian dari orang lain dengan minimal effort. Cewek pasti senyum2/cengar cengir bangga waktu jalan sama cowok who's the perfect accessory.

Masalahnya, kenapa cowok2 kebanyakan sukanya pake combo andalan: sendal jepit swallow + kaos lusuh + rambut kusut yg bikin cewek2 manyun ya? Padahal when a chick feels like the dude she's with is the only accessory she needs, then she won't take freaking long to get ready, won't take 3 hours to shop (ok, maybe 2), dan pastinya kebawelan seperti "aduh, kamu tuh ga bisa pake baju yg rapih dikit, ya?" bakal lebih jarang mampir di kuping lo. Sama2 untung kan?

So dudes, sisir tuh rambut, cukur tuh jenggot, pake tuh deodorant, cuci tuh kaos kaki. Be THE accessory of choice. Until we see the next gorgeous pair of shoes, at least.
